MMA i.e. Mixed martial arts, includes wrestling, kick-boxing, etc and involves hardcore freehand exercise. Blows to face n eye during a fight are common. Is there any risk of the flap in the eye that is created during lasik, getting dislocated if i get hit in the head or eye, even after sufficient recovery time (i am considering 6 months). Please let me know if i can ever feel natural during a fight, or do i have to take special precautions everytime, after the lasik.

Approximately 1-2% of patients who have custom Intralase LASIK will require refinement procedures due to their individual response to the excimer laser treatment. It is our policy to wait three months before refinement in order to assure refractive stability.
By all means, have an ophthalmologist examine you. It is most likely a refractive error. You won't be able to have anything done about it until after your pregnancy, however. The vision may return to normal spontaneously (by itself) after the pregnancy.
